There was a sharp "click" sound. As soon as the flash went off, Chi Enen was startled and instinctively looked up.
"What are you doing?"
The Arrogant man calmly put away his Mobile phone, clearly in a good mood. "Nothing."
He changed the subject, not giving Chi Enen a chance to press him further. "Huo Yi also found some fireworks. Want to go set them off together?"
Fireworks at the Seaside, huh.
Chi Enen had nothing else to do anyway, so she agreed. "Okay."
Li Beijue had someone go make the preparations.
The two of them walked toward the beach together.
Chi Enen had no idea she’d been so easily distracted.
...
On Li’s Plutocrat’s Official Instagram, a newly updated photo caused an uproar.
On the usually cold and aloof official account, they had just posted a black-and-white aesthetic photo.
In the photo, the Little lady’s head is tilted down at a 45° angle, her Bright Eyes looking at the Fairy Wand in her hand. The Fairy Wand glows Bright in the night, like tiny Stars blooming. The person in the photo seems very curious about the glow of the Fairy Wand, reaching out to gently touch it... The image freezes at that exact second.
The composition of the entire picture is aesthetic; you can tell the person who took it put a lot of thought into it.
And judging from what the person in the photo is wearing, this is clearly a casual Vacation-at-home kind of photo, so it wasn’t hard to guess who took it.
All the major public accounts were in an uproar.
You have to know, up till now all the Media still thought this newlywed couple, whose wedding had just sparked Global attention, hadn’t left Country W yet.
Turns out, they’d managed to slip away right under the noses of all those swarming Paparazzi, and from the looks of it, they’d been gone for more than just a day.
Riding this wave of Popularity, many Media public accounts followed up with new coverage.
Amid a chorus of envious blessings.
An off-key voice suddenly popped up.
No one knew which public account started it, but Online there suddenly began spreading the news that Chi Enen had lost her voice.
At first everyone treated it as clickbait nonsense, but later, the more people talked, the more convincing it sounded, and some actually started to believe that Chi Enen had run into an accident during their honeymoon and was so traumatized she’d lost her voice.
With that, Ryan’s stocks began to drop.
Even though Ryan immediately issued a stern statement.
But that statement, under the escalating wave of gossip, was turned into "a cover-up that only makes things look worse." Even that Official Instagram PDA photo everyone had just been envying was deliberately interpreted by some Media as a small Action meant to hide the fact that Chi Enen was hurt.
All kinds of rumors started swirling Outside in no time.
The next day, early morning.
The faint morning light had just fallen on the sea level when Li Beijue kissed the person who’d fallen fast asleep last night from sheer exhaustion, then got up and walked barefoot into the bathroom.
"Splash, splash, splash..." After taking a shower, he came out Vivid and Full of Spirit, with a bathrobe draped over him.
The Mobile phone left in the Living room started ringing just then.
Li Beijue walked over, bent down to pick up the Mobile phone, glanced at the Incoming calls display, and answered.
"Hello."
"Beijue, have you seen the Online news?"
It was Old Master Li’s voice.
Li Beijue’s eyebrows furrowed subconsciously. "What news?"
"Enen—Online they’re saying Enen lost her voice. Is it true?"
Old Master Li’s voice carried the same pressure as always, but beneath that authority, one could clearly hear his deep concern.
